Not everybody can be a starving artist

MSNBC reported yesterday that nearly 700 children are hungry in the US and that 1 in 8 Americans are on the verge of being undernourished.
Things are not much different where I am. Some kids come to school wearing rags while others arrive in their parents’ new off road vehicle, wearing 200 USD shoes.
Humans don’t need such luxuries. We need very few things and every thing we have more than this minimum is just related to greed.
Greed is, in my opinion, the most harmful and destructive sin.
It makes adults sacrifice their life in the name of an intangible demon which will ultimate destry their life (namely money), and even worse – It makes children go hungry.
Given a fixed amount of finances in a given society that lacks a minimal limit to which its citizens can deteriorate, it is obvious that for every person who lives in luxury there must be another person who is undernourished, underdressed or undereducated.
Therefore, greed, namely the pursuit of unproportional wealth, is a sin. I just hope they’ll be punished by God.
